Tonight's episode of RAW really needs to be good after the dumpster fire that has been the introduction of the Wild Card Rule. Ratings are at record lows and it's really time for WWE to try something drastic in the way the show is presented and the way they book it.

Could tonight's episode of RAW be where all the changes begin and RAW gets back on track? We'll have to wait and see.

#5. New tag-team champions

Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins are the current RAW Tag-Team Champions. Action in the tag-team division has been heating up recently, especially since WrestleMania, with new faces added to the division like the Viking Raiders. Apart from that, the top tag-team in WWE right now, The Usos, were also drafted to RAW during the Superstar Shake-Up.

The Revival are also still on the RAW brand and despite pissing off management after declining to sign lucrative new contracts, are formidable adversaries when they are allowed to show what they can do. The Revival recently said the following about their main roster run and what went wrong:

When we came in and beat The New Day, with that kind of reaction, maybe that boosted our ego a little too much. It was like someone said, 'Settle down, let's put that chip back on your shoulder.

As for RAW tonight, there's a big chance that Hawkins and Ryder will be defending their tag-team titles tonight as hinted by Ryder on Twitter:

We don't yet know who Hawkins and Ryder will defend their titles against tonight but there is more than a decent chance that we could see new champions crowned tonight. Despite the fact that I like Hawkins and Ryder as a team, the division really isn't going anywhere with them like champs.

#4. The UK Championship is defended on RAW

Walter could very well be defending the WWE UK title on tonight's episode of WWE RAW. Walter has already defended the UK title at a Live Event in the UK and it will be interesting to see who WWE have him face on RAW if they do go ahead and book this match.

There's no chance of Walter losing the title tonight so it could just be someone from 205 Live or a lower card Superstar from main.


#3. Massive brawl during the double contract signing

We will see a massive double contract signing segment on RAW tonight as Becky Lynch prepares to defend the RAW Women's Championship against Lacey Evans at MITB and the SmackDown Women's Championship against Charlotte Flair.

The segment could end with a massive brawl with the rest of the women's locker room needing to come out and pull the ladies apart.

#2. Pete Dunne moved to Monday Night RAW

Tonight's episode of WWE RAW takes place from the UK. Last year, we saw Pete Dunne make his main roster debut on RAW as the then-UK Champion beat Enzo Amore in a singles match. Tonight could be the night we finally see the talented Brit make his permanent move to the main roster. We all know Dunne is ready for a spot on main and now the ball will be in WWE's court.

Even though Dunne still has to face Walter again in the future, a move to the main roster shouldn't get in the way.


#1. Bray Wyatt to introduce a new character to the Firefly Fun House

Last week on WWE RAW, we saw the untimely demise of Rambling Rabbit during Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House segment. Rambling Rabbit was tragically eaten by Mercy The Buzzard.

Could we see Bray Wyatt now add a new member to the Firefly Fun House tonight?
